AVEN AURA Featuring Former THE CROWN Drummer: Audio Samples Available

May 3, 2005

AVEN AURA, the unsigned Ontario, Canada-based metal band featuring former THE CROWN drummer Janne Saarenpää, have uploaded at their official web site three brand-new sound samples from their upcoming full-length debut, "The Shadow of Idols". Check them out at this location.

Janne recorded the drums for "The Shadow of Idols" last summer at Spectre Sound Studio. Recording continued with Steve laying down the guitar tracks and session bassist Connor Sharpe recording the bass in the fall of 2004. Chris recorded vocals in December and around the same time the long arduous search for a session keyboardist came to an end when Roxanne Constantin of QUO VADIS contacted AVEN AURA. She recorded the keyboards in February 2005.

"The Shadow of Idols" is being described on the group's official web site as "a focused attack consisting of seventeen tracks, five of which are short instrumental interludes. It is a refreshing and exciting debut that will expand the boundaries of metal yet still be pleasing to the metal community."

"The Shadow of Idols" track listing:

01. The Heavens Weep as Angels Thirst
02. Promise of Paradise
03. Rise of Usurpers
04. Within Spring's Twilight
05. The Scarlet Moon Draws Near
06. Virginity and the Tempest
07. Beneath the Celestial Skies
08. A Scar Within the Silent Womb
09. Embrace the Fallen Life
10. Into the Darkness
11. On the Wings of Revelation
12. To Witness the Shadows Unite
13. At the Gates of Damnation
14. End of All Hope
15. Lure of Ruin
16. The Rapture of Mournings Night
17. Four Seasons Better Left Dead

AVEN AURA are currently in search for a bass player and a keyboard player. If you are interested and serious about joining the band, send an e-mail to [email protected].
